There was really nothing to complain about. After taking the photos, Tong Xiaonuan and reporter Zhang quickly changed out of their clothes as quickly as possible.

Reporter Zhang went to interview nearby villagers and workers.

"Director Shen, I would like to interview you privately about why you wanted to do welfare work. Is that okay?" Tong Xiaonuan looked at Shen Xiangbei.

"Of course." Shen Xiangbei knew the importance of this interview and invited reporter Zhang into the office.

Reporter Zhang always felt that when he suggested taking a walk, Captain Tang and Shen Xiangbei's smiles were weird, as if they were eager for him to go.

He held the camera and walked towards the field of the brigade.

The location of the food factory is a little far from the fields, but there are many members working in the fields. The rice fields are a pale yellow, which is very beautiful.

Looking at this beautiful scenery, reporter Zhang couldn't help but take a few more photos.

When he started talking to the members who were busy in the rice fields, he understood why Captain Tang and Shen Xiangbei had strange smiles.

The members didn't answer the questions he asked about the Zhongxing Non-staple Food Factory perfectly, but not a single word of dissatisfaction appeared among them. Everyone spoke with longing and expectation for the non-staple food factory.

Moreover, after he asked a question, he had no time to ask the next question.

"Young man, you are a big reporter from the province, right? I tell you, you must write well. Our Zhongxing Food Factory is very good, and all the Shens in our factory are good cadres..."

I asked three members and they all said pretty much the same thing, except they used different words to praise.

Reporter Zhang even suspected that the team leaders deliberately asked these members to say this.

He thought again, these brigades' members all have interests tied to the Zhongxing Non-staple Food Factory, so what about the children? Why not go and ask the children?

Was the promise of Zhongxing Non-staple Food Factory just empty promises or was it put into practice? Shen Xiangbei's answer was flawless, and he told the truth about the situation of Zhongxing Non-staple Food Factory.

Tong Xiaonuan nodded repeatedly after listening to this. She didn't expect that such a small factory could achieve this level.

"Director Shen, we have basically understood the situation of your Zhongxing Non-staple Food Factory, and we will report it truthfully."

"Thank you very much, reporter Tong."

Reporter Zhang walked into the factory. He didn't expect that even children were full of praise for the Zhongxing Non-staple Food Factory.

He really began to doubt whether they had reached a consensus on their stance.

But who would have thought of unifying the children's opinions? The children were talking at once, and it didn't seem like they had been taught in advance.

Is Zhongxing Non-staple Food Factory really that good?

While walking, reporter Zhang suddenly bumped into someone.

"You are a journalist, right?"

Reporter Zhang looked up and saw a female comrade wearing clothes without patches.

"Yes, I am a reporter from the Jiang Province Daily. Comrade, what can I do for you?"

"That's great, comrade reporter. I want to report Shen Xiangbei for abusing his power and appointing people based on personal connections!" Shu Lijuan grabbed reporter Zhang's hand and held it tightly.

When reporter Zhang heard the word "report", he instinctively felt unhappy.

But when he heard that he was reporting Shen Xiangbei, Reporter Zhang still listened patiently: "You mean you want to report Director Shen Xiangbei?"

"right!"

"Tell me what the details are." Reporter Zhang took out a notebook from his bag.

Shu Lijuan exaggerated the story and said that she had accidentally offended Shen Xiangbei's sister and was eliminated from the recruitment quota.

"Shouldn't the factory's recruitment quota be fair, just and open? Shen Xiangbei appointed people based on personal connections, making his brother the sales director and his sister-in-law the production team leader. Almost all of the Shen family members have entered the factory. This is an obvious fact. And! The Shen family lives an extremely extravagant life. There is meat almost every day, and the clothes of the Shen family are not even patched..."

Shu Lijuan talked incessantly.

After reporter Zhang finished listening to what Shu Lijuan said, he wrote down several key words in his notebook: extravagant lifestyle and nepotism.

Then he asked, "You know so much about it. Are you maliciously slandering Director Shen because you were not selected as a worker?"

Shu Lijuan's eyes widened. "Every word I said is true. Reporter, if you don't believe me, you can go to the village and ask. Zhongxing Food Factory is obviously a state-owned enterprise, but it became the private property of the Shen family. The Shen family also secretly accepted bribes and let a person from another village enter the factory!"

Reporter Zhang nodded: "Thank you for your response. I will definitely find out the facts. What is your name?"

Shu Lijuan's eyes began to evade: "I am just an ordinary member of the brigade. Can't I report anonymously?"

Reporter Zhang looked her up and down, then looked at her with a sharp gaze: "Who knows if you are a member of this brigade? Maybe you just made up all these things!"

"My name is Shu Lijuan, and I'm a member of this brigade!" Shu Lijuan introduced her identity again.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"Comrade reporter, you must expose Shen Xiangbei's ugly face!"

"I'll get to the bottom of it!"

After saying that, reporter Zhang turned around and walked towards the non-staple food factory.

Seeing that reporter Zhang had taken her words to heart, Shu Lijuan watched him leave. Turning around, she found that Sun Taohua had been watching her from a distance.

"When did you get behind me? You scared me!"

Sun Taohua didn't say anything and just turned around and left.

When reporter Zhang saw Tong Xiaonuan, Shen Xiangbei was enthusiastically inviting them to his home for dinner.

Reporter Zhang thought about what Shu Lijuan said and wanted to verify it, so he agreed.

On the way, Tong Xiaonuan said to reporter Zhang: "Director Shen is the youngest and most promising director I have ever met. It can be said that he founded the Zhongxing Non-staple Food Factory single-handedly."

Reporter Zhang looked at Shen Xiangbei who was walking in front of him: "A person's outstanding ability does not mean that his moral character is consistent."

Tong Xiaonuan was a little confused. What did reporter Zhang mean by this? Was Director Shen a bad person?

When he arrived at the Shen family's house, reporter Zhang saw this house that stood out from the crowd from a distance.

The houses next to it are all adobe houses, except for this large green brick and tile house.

"Director Shen's family is well off! The house is so big."

Shen Xiangbei still smiled: "It's okay in the village. The policy was liberalized two years ago. My family made some money from raising pigs, so we built a new house. We didn't split up the family. More than a dozen people, young and old, all live here, so the house is naturally a bit bigger."

When he walked into the yard, Zhang Zhifan looked at the furnishings in the house. There were several grape trees planted in the yard, full of green fruits. There were two tables and several benches in the yard. Zhang Zhifan knew that these were all made of pear wood.

"Is this the reporter?" Old Mrs. Ji asked Shen Yue and Shen Xue to bring out tea.

Reporter Zhang thanked her calmly, took the teacup, looked at the tea leaves in it, and believed what Shu Lijuan said a little more.

"Director Shen, I heard that everyone in your family has started working at the food factory. Is that true?"
